Bio Part 1 - Art
An amalgamation of grey-area politicized identities, smitty buckler, expresses themselves through the intersections of being an artist, organizer, writer, performer, dancer, coder, researcher, healer, and advocate. Their whole life, smitty has always been an artist and thus has over forty years of study. As a theatre artist and tech specializing in puppets, multimedia, and audio, they create illusions - shadow puppets over video with music and prose composed by smitty. An illustrator who moved into Graphic Web and Print Design and then general stage and screen tech specializing in audio, videographer, and lighting; smitty is an autodidact that can translate any concept into tangible reality. Enthusiasts of smitty say among their other qualities, one is phlebotomizing the patriarchy of all its evil blood, replacing it with liquid glitter. This is apparent in their art and the fierceness they bring to intersectional activism.
